This weekend was great racing!!! Oscherschleben really suits touring car series like TCR, as was shown in the TCR Germany as well. Amazing good fun. And very good to have Morbidelli back at the front, he sure did some amazing overtaking in race 2. TCR future of touring car racing!!

Duncan Ende isn't any better, although his SEAT is maybe less prepared than the Opel.

Hopefully they find a good replacement driver.

Ende wasn't great in PWC either if I remember correctly.
At least this is his first season with FWD car.

Hopefully they'll just give the seat back to Corthals? He deserves to be in the series.

He's an amateur driver... He wasn't great in the LMPC or GTC cars back in the ALMS days, or the Conti GS cars either really, but to his credit he was generally pretty steady with his pace and stayed out of trouble.

The "worst driver in the series" comments sound a bit harsh when directed at amateur drivers that really haven't done anything wrong.

...and infact it wasn't referred to Duncan. I knew he wasn't great in America but i think he's not doing so bad after all, considering that he doesn't know the european tracks

I don't like to be so harsh with driver but Demoustier didn't make any impression in WTCC in a super car like the Elysee and then in TCR where the Opel seems to be competitive now as Homola shows.
He was better in GTs racing
But in the and also Demoustier is a pay driver...

And Demoustier is doing terribly in World RX.

For a driver with limited talent he's doing too much different series. Could better concentrate on one car.

During summer break Comtoyou has asked Audi Sport if they can enable them to test RS3 (since their cars are in Thailand, and they are competing for the title in international series), and Audi Sport didn't even answered them!
That's Grade A customer support...

Comini is an outspoken person but is everthing 100% correct what he's saying?

He said to Motorsport.com that he did zero tests from Oschersleben to Buriram. This could be quite true.

The whole Comtoyou story is a bit weird anyways. There was no Audi 'factory-supported' team at the beginning of the season and no drive for Comini, and all of a sudden last moment before the start of the season Audi favourite WRT finds an obscure sponsor nobody heard of before which has money to fund multiple race teams but hasn't been able to have a website yet for the entirety of 2017. Leopard much?

If I'm wrong and falsely spreading conspiracy theories please do correct me.

Agree with this, but since they are competing for title, what's the problem help team achieve that?
JAS has sent new car after Tassi crashed in Austria, they want to help, but I think Audi Sport main concern is selling cars, not helping teams that already bought their cars.

No problem at all, a bit of support would indeed make sense. Though I also agree with FIRE that Comini isn't always as political with his statements, there could very well be some important information left out of that story.

Also, if testing is that important for you, why not organize something yourself?

I have no problem with him being honest, but some time he goes too far
Maybe they tried to organise testing, and couldn't find free cars?

IIRC Comtoyou Racing has no connection with WRT.

There was a link, if it isn't WRT it's ex-WRT people.
